Our 13 month old Worcester Bosch Junior 24i has developed a drip
underneath the unit on the right hand side as you face it. No signs of
any leaks and it only seems to happen when the boiler has shut down
after the heating cycle.
I'm assuming condensation, but any advice welcome.



IME W-B boilers are prone to leaks any work on them seems to encourage
them even more.

It really is worth having a look around the inside of the boiler for the
leak. Boilers are running above ambient temperature on almost all their
components and so external condensation from external humidity is unlikely.


Thanks, Ed. Your opinion of WB fills me with confidence :-)
So, running the boiler below full temperature isn't likely to cause it?
I'll check out Michael's suggestion and have a general look round. Given
the leak is tiny and intermittent, that should be fun.
